I was at Queens yesterday for a job interview and on the way back discovered the renowned 'No Alibis' bookstore. I popped in not really knowing what I was looking for, some poetry maybe... and came away with ' Selected poems'. Id heard Moyra reading in Limavady last year. Im a big Norman MacCaig fan and I hav'nt really found a poet I enjoyed as much.....Till Now ! Moyra's poems touch you, inspire you ,, fill you with magic, and when you finish reading one you find yourself whispering to yourself ,,, ' I loved that' A beautiful book of poems and an equally beautiful cover too,, ,, i'd highly recommend it!.....Chris
